Surrey Meet 3 - 11am, Sunday 6th Aug, Fairmile Pub, Cobham

[E24man]

Excellent and eclectic turnout - well done everyone who turned up; it's not often you get to a side by side comparison of a Ford supercharged V8 and a Trabant engine

Also loved the Benelli straight 6 motorcycle - simple awesome OTT 1970's one-upmanship engineering - fabulous.

The Benelli was quite the curiosity - very cool!

Thanks everyone for coming, especially those who saw us there and stopped in without ever reading PH!

Cracking weather again (at least in patches) - Think we may have topped 40, all told

Bets on a wet September? 3 sunny ones in a row so far - seem to be beating the odds!

Didn't get a single pic with Bella in tow, so get 'em posted!

Cheers Guys, enjoyed that

Matt M3 - immaculate! I have an Estoril saloon but it sure doesn't look like yours. Good to meet Steve. Roast lamb with a few anchovies now on BBQ. I've had worse Sundays.

The video? Seems OK here

[dom9]

Ok here - maybe a judder at the start!

Good vid, Flimper!

Left the best 'til last - I like the way your camera makes my car look shiny and I managed to stay mostly off camera!

[Hoofy]

Weird. A lot better in Firefox. Chrome is unwatchable.

Odd, tried Chrome & Opera and both seem fine

[Hoofy]

Well, it was great in Firefox.

Technology. Never been able to get to grips with it

I was thinking I was doing something wrong.

Huge thanks to Dom9 for organising the meet. I felt it was a huge success. Lots of it unique cars on display and very relaxed, civilised atmosphere. Perfect Sunday morning.

@Miller1899. Thank you for the kind comments. I love the car but sadly don't get much time to drive it at the moment.

@chap with the drone. Sorry I didn't catch your name. However, thank you for taking some nice ariel shots of my car. I very much look forward to seeing them.

See you all at the next one.

Matt

Awww - it's getting dusty in here!

It's really my pleasure and no effort at all!

Best one yet... even if I'm missing Traxx's Ferraris!

[DaveOrange]

That was a good meet. Real mix of cars. Personal favourites were the American stuff and the V6 Clio's.

Having said that the guy with the Trabbant is a top bloke👍

[MikeGoodwin]

Balls. Missed a cracker there some great cars. The e92 and e93 m3's are bloody nice. And the 996 cs.

[MattM3]

Hi folks, any pictures?

[Z4MCSL]

I second that, keen to see some pics.

Also to echo other peoples comments it was a great meet, thanks for organising Dom, dont think we met but I will try to say hi next time.

[seyre1972]

All,

link to photo Album - apologies for not taking more/closer ones of cars (Mclaren I just caught as it was leaving) That was parked too close to the tree for me to feel comfortable flying the drone overhead .....

If/next time people wants top down/side on from above shots of their cars - please let me know.

Great pics as always!

For those that didn't meet me; I'm the one with the black Labrador in tow

Hoofy and I lost about an hour (ok, maybe 10+mins) trying to get a drink from an unusually busy bar (think there was a big, private party in) so may have missed some comers and goers!
